Turtle Boy, Worcester MA, originally uploaded by Claudia Snell.

Yesterday was a really nice day here in Worcester - wow! More, please?!

I took the opportunity to get some more pictures of my favorite statue ;-)
I needed to have some more pix for the Turtle Boy fan-site I built.

Today, it’s raining again. Back to work in the studio. I’m glad I took advantage of that sun while it lasted.

Is it wrong to eat this for breakfast?

Original post about the beta-test :
Joffry’s coffee beta test for bloggers - WOOT!

It’s really official now - I got the coffee and am actually drinking some of it right now. It’s great! They sent me a flavor called “Jamaican Me Crazy”. It seems to have a slight vanilla taste. YUM!!!

I would certainly buy this stuff if I see it. I must confess, I usually do not venture into the “boutique” coffees much. I’m more of a “price-shopper”. This stuff is good for when you want more than just some “liquid-awake” though. It’s for enjoying (as if I have time for that - ha!).

Anyway. I’m off to do a million things that must get done or the universe will implode. Or, more accurately, people will act as if the universe is imploding which is actually more unpleasant than a literal universe implosion because it’s never-ending as opposed to one big catastrophe and it’s over - ugh!!!

Thank you Joffrey’s for the fun taste-test! I’m happy I played along.

Thank you Trainstopping for sending me the link to Joffrey’s. Lovin’ it!

Twister is great! The kids love him. He shows up at all the important events around the city. He’s very entertaining at the Tornadoes games. I just have one question. What is Twister?? He looks like he could be a dog or a bear or maybe some type of panther/cat-type animal. I decided to take a poll to see what everyone else thinks. I’ve also allowed for an “other” option for those of you who think he’s some other type of animal - please do share what you think it is, it’ll be a lot more fun that way.

2008 Worcester St. Patrick's Day ParadeI don’t want to leave out the other super-awesome mascot of Worcester, Finz. Everyone loves Finz too- check out the crowd of kids all trying to give him a hug. But I am also very sure that Finz is a shark so no big questions about him ;-)

2008 St. Patrick's Day Parade, Worcester, MA

We went out to the parade yesterday. Everyone else who was out there knows it was freezing, windy and a lot of fun. It’s really something that you should get out and experience. The crowds were huge but from what I could see, mostly really well behaved. People seemed to be in a good mood and having a great time.

I’ve got a totally stupid amount of photos on my Flickr. I actually have a bunch more than what is up there but haven’t had time to post. Soon… I hope.
